What are the central angles of the sectors representing nuclear energy in both the years?( you may round the numbers before finding the central angles)

Answer 1

Answer:

1995: 22°

2005: 36°

Step-by-step explanation:

Central angle of the sector representing nuclear energy = percent of nuclear energy represented ÷ 100 × 360°

For 1995:

% represented by nuclear energy = 6.40% ≈ 6%

Central angle of the sector it represents = $\frac{6}{100}*360$

$= \frac{6*360}{100}$

$= \frac{6*36}{10} = \frac{216}{10} = 21.6$

Central angle represented by nuclear energy in 1995 = 21.6 ≈ 22° (to nearest whole number)

For 2005:

% represented by nuclear energy = 10.10% ≈ 10%

Central angle of the sector it represents = $\frac{10}{100}*360$

$= \frac{10*360}{100}$

$= \frac{1*36}{1} = \frac{36}{1} = 36$

Central angle represented by nuclear energy in 2005 = 36°
